I really like everything about this bedframe, except the height of the headboard and footboard! My mattress is 12 inches high, so you dont really see any of the detail of the footboard, and by the time you put pillows at the head of the bed, you dont see much of the headboard either. Which is a shame, because I really like the spindle design! But the bed is sturdy, all the space below is great (its high enough for paper boxes, some laundry baskets, plastic crates, and certain totes!), and the assembly was simple but time/consuming (about 2 hours for me). If you have a short mattress or dont really care about the design much, go for this bed! But if you have a mattress thats 10 or higher, or you add thick toppers, you may want to reconsider.
Nice if you have a short mattress
